Re: How about that PhotoCraft
I'm downloading now to see what gives ......... I'm an old dog and kind of married to Photoshop which is why in the end, excellent though it is, I eventually stopped using Affinity a couple of years and went back to PS. It's a bit like comfortable old shoes ...........  _________________ The subtlety and conviction of any Photoshop effect is invariably inversely proportional to the number of knobs on it ....... |

It's MASSIVE. Going to take a long, long time just to scratch the surface ............ _________________ The subtlety and conviction of any Photoshop effect is invariably inversely proportional to the number of knobs on it ....... |

It looks promising. They keep pushing out updates every couple of days, though I can't really tell what is updated. I also don't know much about vibe coding. When it gets to a point where you can install plugins, I want to see if my old Eye Candy plugin works. It still sort of works in Affinity. |

Re: How about that PhotoCraft
For those who haven't looked it's a suite of thirteen major apps covering everything photo and design, audio visual including film and animation, publishing induing word processing and layout plus spread sheets, and a bit more. It's far too much to check out but I have taken look at the Photoshop equivalent and, withe exception of a few icons, it's exactly like Photoshop but (I think) without AI. As far as I can see each app is designed to be a clone of its commercial counterpart so migration is easy. I'm going to play but I think I will not be changing as I am now a bit set in my ways. For students on a budget this would be just amazing! _________________ The subtlety and conviction of any Photoshop effect is invariably inversely proportional to the number of knobs on it ....... |
